Spicemarket Colour is a boutique personal colour analysis service based in Victoria, Australia. The site provides information about colour theory and its relationship to the human body. A blog offers ongoing education about applying colour knowledge to achieve harmonious styling in clothes, hair and make up.
With a selection of hair colour protection shampoo, hydrating conditioners, and a bond-building leave-in designed to look after the longevity, vibrance and health of your hair, these are the colour-protection must-haves to ensure beautiful hair colour.
Colour protection is ideal for all hair types and colour services including highlights, balayage, lowlights, grey coverage, glosses, or global hair colour. This is because hair colour can fade prematurely at any time, especially if your hair is overly porous or damaged.
Additionally, some hair types can experience more sensitivity, damage, and breakage after hair colouring, meaning they need extra protection. To extend the life of coloured hair and improve the condition of your hair, look for products that include bond-building protection, pH sealing technology, and added hydration and repair.
Start protecting your shade by switching your hair shampoo and conditioner to EVERLASTING.COLOUR WASH + RINSE. As a first line of defense, this sulphate-free duo balances the pH of your coloured hair. Translation: it closes the cuticle to lock in hair colour and protect from hard water and environmental stressors.
For an added dose of protection, EVERLASTING.COLOUR TREATMENT is a professional strength bond-building treatment that you can add to any part of your at-home routine. Unlike other treatments that need to be washed out, this is lightweight enough that it can be left in. Simply spray on towel-dried hair, comb, and style.

Recently, the field of predicting phenotypes of externally visible characteristics (EVCs) from DNA genotypes with the final aim of concentrating police investigations to find persons completely unknown to investigating authorities, also referred to as Forensic DNA Phenotyping (FDP), has started to become established in forensic biology. We previously developed and forensically validated the IrisPlex system for accurate prediction of blue and brown eye colour from DNA, and recently showed that all major hair colour categories are predictable from carefully selected DNA markers. Here, we introduce the newly developed HIrisPlex system, which is capable of simultaneously predicting both hair and eye colour from DNA. HIrisPlex consists of a single multiplex assay targeting 24 eye and hair colour predictive DNA variants including all 6 IrisPlex SNPs, as well as two prediction models, a newly developed model for hair colour categories and shade, and the previously developed IrisPlex model for eye colour. The HIrisPlex assay was designed to cope with low amounts of template DNA, as well as degraded DNA, and preliminary sensitivity testing revealed full DNA profiles down to 63pg input DNA. The power of the HIrisPlex system to predict hair colour was assessed in 1551 individuals from three different parts of Europe showing different hair colour frequencies. Using a 20% subset of individuals, while 80% were used for model building, the individual-based prediction accuracies employing a prediction-guided approach were 69.5% for blond, 78.5% for brown, 80% for red and 87.5% for black hair colour on average. Results from HIrisPlex analysis on worldwide DNA samples imply that HIrisPlex hair colour prediction is reliable independent of bio-geographic ancestry (similar to previous IrisPlex findings for eye colour). We furthermore demonstrate that it is possible to infer with a prediction accuracy of >86% if a brown-eyed, black-haired individual is of non-European (excluding regions nearby Europe) versus European (including nearby regions) bio-geographic origin solely from the strength of HIrisPlex eye and hair colour probabilities, which can provide extra intelligence for future forensic applications. The HIrisPlex system introduced here, including a single multiplex test assay, an interactive tool and prediction guide, and recommendations for reporting final outcomes, represents the first tool for simultaneously establishing categorical eye and hair colour of a person from DNA. The practical forensic application of the HIrisPlex system is expected to benefit cases where other avenues of investigation, including STR profiling, provide no leads on who the unknown crime scene sample donor or the unknown missing person might be.
I've been thinking exactly the same thing. I'm on gemcitabine and carboplatin. If I don't lose my hair and it just thins, I would like my roots doing. I'm a bit of the same mind as you, can't really see what the problem would be.
I was always 'sensitive' but now found I am now much more sensitive to more products since chemo and it really does seem to be down to trial and error. Obviously if you're going to have reaction to the chemo drugs that's what the medical team are going to be focussing on and the last thing they need is another allergic reaction thrown into the mix, so I can see their point
You could try dry shampoo which has a colour in in for a quick fix. super drugs own brand is a good one. I used the cold cap as I had docotaxel didn't loose my hair but having a white stripe did get me down but was too scared to colour it. Once I had finished I used Holland and Barrett vegetable colour but if I do chemo again I think I would colour it with the vegetable colour, it had no smell to it at all, my hairdresser put it on for me and said there was nothing in it at all. It is a personal choice whether to or not but I chickened out in the end until I was finished.
I fear Kacang has oversold me a little! I've been a hairdresser for many years and would always advise not to colour while on chemo - it's mainly an issue with skin sensitivity and, as someone who has dyed my hair for 35+ years, I now find my scalp is more sensitive than it used to be (18 months since chemo) - I also found that the colour didn't take properly after FECT chemo but that may not be the same for the regime you are on. You've already been given great advice about alternative products and you could look at semi- permanent colours which are gentler or a technique that doesn't touch the scalp - like highlights. Another breast champ often recommends the Trevor Sorbie charity my new hair. They have a lot of information on their website and a database of hairdressers they have trained to deal with clients who have/had chemo.
Obviously it's up to you if you take the risk - some people will probably be fine - others not. If you already have a hairdresser you trust then I'd suggest having a chat with them - they may or may not be prepared to do it for you but for a regular client, most hairdressers would try to find some sort of solution - there are lots of options in terms of products etc.
